lyrics

So long, sundown,
time to turn this thing around.
All the friends I’ve ever known,
all like summer swifts have flown.
But the light hits the stone
of the tenements at dawn,
and my heart it still fills up:
it’s approximately love.

I’m a wreck,
I’m a ruin,
I’m a thread lost to the loom.
Fix my tie and fix my hair;
shake me out of this despair.
Grab my coat, leave my drink,
take me home, don’t let me think.
I am tired of make believe.
Make the sun come up for me.

Those old familiar eyes
are pulling on my heart strings.
Just wait and give it time —
the art of doing nothing.

And you, Star of the Sea,
won’t you spare some light for me?
Still the storm and hush the wind.
Say my luck is coming in.

At the end of this gloom
there’s a garden in full bloom
where the Wild Mountain Thyme
sings to sleep my little lights.

Those old familiar eyes
are pulling on my heartstrings.
Too late I realise
I have all I need.
So please give me a sign:
a weird eclipse or something.
Just wait and give it time —
the art of doing nothing.
